One thing I've become aware of recently are the large number of programs downloaded onto the computer without the user's knowledge, run, and then deleted. So far I've noticed this with a number of software update systems, with Chrome being the most egregious example since it is continuously modifying itself and never notifying the user about it.
I never realized how much transient code is run on my system without my knowledge.
